[B] [C#]
[B]
[F#] [B]
[E] [B] [E] They say [B] a woman's a fool for weeping
Fool to break her own heart
[F#]
But I can't hold the secret I'm keeping
[E] I'm breaking [B] apart
Can't seem to mind my own business
Whatever I try turns out wrong
[F#] I seem like my own false witness and [E] I can't go
[B]
[D] I cover my ears, I [A] close my [Bm] eyes
Still hear your voice and it's [F#] telling [B] me lies
Telling me lies
[F#] You [B] told me you needed my company
And I believed in your flattering ways
[F#] Told me you needed me forever
[E] Nearly gave you the rest of [B] my days
Should've seen you for what you are
Should never have come back for more
[F#]
Should've locked up all my silver
[E] Brought the key back to [B] your door
[D] I cover my ears, [A] I close [Bm] my eyes
Still hear your voice and [C#] it's telling [B] me lies
Telling me [F#] lies
[G#m] [F#] [G#m] [E]
[B]
You don't know what a chance is
Until you have to seize one
[F#] You don't know what a man [B] is
[E] Until you have [B] to please one
Don't put your life in the hands of a man
Good days for every season
[F#] Don't waste your time in the arms of a man
[E] Who's no stranger [B] to treason
[D] I cover my ears, [A] I close [Bm] my eyes
Still hear your voice and [C#] it's telling [B] me lies
[F#] Telling me lies
[D] I [A] cover my ears, I close my [Bm] eyes
Still hear your voice and [C#] it's telling [B] me lies
[E] [B] I [F#] [B]
cover my ears, [E] I [B] close my eyes
Still hear your [F#] voice
[B] Telling me lies
